-an exciting post from Hawaii-

I will post more about this when I get home, but wanted to give you all the heads up!

I am posting from my I pad and have no clue how to do links, etc. so I apologize in advance. I just got the ok to post this so.......

I have been asked to host a homegoods blogger party!

What is it you may ask?

Well, on march 2nd, my local homegoods (Lynnwood Washington) will be opening up their store before hours (8-9:30)

To host a special shopping extravaganza for me and get this, 50 other friends/readers of my sweet savannah!

The store will be freshly stocked just for us and they will have a breakfast buffet waiting!

Not only that, but everyone who comes gets a $10 gift card.

We will also be playing some fun games where you can win additional $25 and $50 gift cards!

Can you imagine shopping before the store opens to the general public, breakfast buffet galore, and free gift cards?

I want to treat this sort of as a giveaway because I honestly don't know the response I will get.

So, if you are local and can be at home goods in Lynwood Washington on march 2nd, from 8-9:30, leave me a comment on this post as your RSVP. Make sure you leave me your email address. If you get an email from me, that is your confirmation that you will be attending!

I will email you around the 1st. and feel free to bring a friend, just RSVP for 2 in the comments!

If you haven't been to home goods yet, this is a great time! I love shopping at discount prices, and getting high end looks!

Rhoda from southern hospitality hosted a party too!

I am so excited to meet some of my readers that I haven't had the opportunity to meet!

My mom reads your blog everyday, and often forwards posts on for me to read...yesterday was no different! We would love nothing more than to attend, spend this time together and meet you! We'd be so grateful and excited if there is room for the two of us!

I am no longer in WA state but just wanted to pop in and see how your trip to Kauai is going! :) I was born and raised on Kauai, in beautiful Kilauea on the north shore. If you're in Princeville any time soon, stop in at CJ's and have my mom's yummy mud pie. She is going on 78 years young and has worked there for 36 years! Hugs and enjoy my 'aina! Aloha, ~*Joni (popping in from Thistlewood Farms via the lovely Karianne)

Is it too late? I would love to bring a friend! But a question first: my just-turned-6-year-old darling daughter would be with us. My husband and boys have karate in the morning and she can't come with them. I understand if this doesn't work, just wanted to check first. But we would love to come if it's okay! :-) Laura / laura@laurajarrell.com

During the middle for February my long time on again off again girlfriend broke up with me. She had some major problems going on in her life at the time and I was receiving some of the blame for them and she just felt it would be better if we were not together. And in typical fashion she handled the break up poorly and completely ignored me as she always did during prior break ups. I also had 2 recent deaths in my family (1 happened before we broke up and the other happened about 2 months later). So I had a lot of stress going on in my life. I hired Spells from Doc Obodo @ templeofanswer@hotmail.co.uk around the middle of February; they had a money back guarantee which made me feel that they must be good at what they do. So I went into this thinking that I would have my ex back in about 4 weeks. Well as time dragged on I started to feel as if this was not going to work at all. During all of this she moved, her phone number was disconnected and I thought this was over for good. In fact I decided that I had better get used to being single again and I tried to forget about her. I started hanging out with my friends more, I even wrote to Lilly requesting my money back. Lilly told me that she felt that this would work, that I had to remain positive and she felt that things would turn around. Throughout all of this Lilly always would amazingly get back to me quickly when I would send her an e-mail, usually within a few hours of the email being sent. As I had been pretty negative about this throughout most of the last 4 weeks I decided to follow her advice and let them continue casting for me. I completely tried to put my ex out of my mind as best I could and kept myself pretty busy, something that I had not done much of since we had broken up. Memorial Day night she called me and told me that she wanted us back together, that she missed me a lot, and that I had to let her know right then and there as we were on the phone if we were going to get back together. I was shocked, each time we did get back together before it was always me that made the 1st move; never had she made the 1st move. We have seen each other almost every night since then and things are getting back to where they used to be. I have to tell you it’s still really hard to believe. She is pretty nervous talking around me sometimes since we have gotten back together and I notice that she is trying to be careful not to say or do the wrong things.you can reach Doc Obodo personal cell @ +2348155425481 if you want to talk to him
